Loving Lately.

Today I want to share a couple of items that I am loving lately.

Up first…my Artifact Uprising photo book that I made with my Florence iPhone photos.

AU has a great website where you can make books with any photos…but for this book I used the Artifact Uprising free app and ordered the book directly from my phone.

Amazing quality and EASY to make. Win Win. I’ll be ordering these for each trip we make. I hope to have a big basket full of them at the end of our three years here.

The next thing I want to share is this 20 Questions Birthday Interview Blurb book by Nicole Reaves. Cutest.Idea.Ever.

The book has a set of questions that you ask your child on (or close to) their birthday. These are for Cate and Lucy and they go from 3 – 18.

These are going to be such a treasure for them to have one day. And the quality is outstanding. Find out more HERE.

Okay, that’s all for today.

Still working my way through all the comments on the “Roll Call” post. I am determined to respond to each one…even if it takes me a year. HA!

Love to you all-

xoxo

  1. I am a huge new fan of Artifact Uprising too! I made a book for my daughter (she’s 17) for Christmas of a bunch of her Instagram photos from the year. It turned out SO amazing! Great quality, so easy to make, and awesome size. It is sitting on her nightstand – I consider that a win!

  2. I am loving the Artifact Uprising photo books … how do you decide which trips you’ll turn into a book? I’m asking because I’m wondering if I should make a book for each big day trip we take here in the UK OR wait and make a book for each trip we take over to the continent? Also, do they ship to APO or your Italy address? I’m really struggling with documenting our time here and, let’s face it, four beautiful girls are so much more fun to photograph than one surely teenager who won’t get anywhere near the camera. Also, how do you make sure you are in the photographs too? Thanks!

  4. LOL, you probably didn’t know what you were getting yourself into with the roll call post! Thanks for commenting on my blog. 🙂 Your photo book looks absolutely amazing! And those 20 questions books are such a fabulous idea! tfs

    Love to you all-”
    THAT, dear Stephanie, is why we love you and your blog, despite the fact that some of us just lurk… Really? All 700+ comments?!?? You are incredible!

  6. barf! hahaha I love it. 🙂
    So happy you like the books Stephanie. Thanks for sharing and your Florence book looks gorgeous!!

  8. Oh bless their little hearts on the “who’s your best friend” answers! And Lucy rocks with her colour choice – ORANGE all the way!!

  9. Can’t get the AU app from a Canadian account. So bummed as I love the idea & have lots of phone photos that would work well in this format. 🙁 & those sweet answers to the questions on your birthday… Adorable!

  10. OMG…. “What do you want to be when you grow up?”…. “barf”. LMAO You must have had so much fun asking them these questions. So stinking cute!!! Love these!! 🙂

  11. And I was so distracted by laughing from the awesome 3 year old answers…. I totally forgot to say I LOVE that album you put together — such a great idea and it looks beautiful!! 🙂

  12. I’m laughing too, that girl is sooo funny. But what a lovely idea, all of those books will always be treasured I think. And your Italian photos definitely deserve to be preserved in books, it is such an adventure. Thanks for visiting my blog Stephanie, it is much appreciated.

  13. What a treasure these will be! Lucy’s best friend answer tugs at my heartstrings & I totally agree with Cate. Somedays being grown up makes me want to barf!

  20. I need to get one of those blurb books for my son (he’s 2.5) – so funny! Thanks for sharing, you always have great taste 🙂

  22. Oh I have to get one of those books for my niece. Well, she won’t need it for another 2 years and 9 months but that’s ok. I like to be prepared. 🙂

  25. Oh my word– the 20 questions book is basically making my head explode! What a fantastic idea! I MUST DO THIS. Thanks for pointing me to it.
    What an awesome idea, too, to have a photobook for each of the adventures you take in Europe. It is going to be a seriously incredible collection!!!
